Tiptoing around the glass peices
If the sharp fragments get stuck
Inside your soul
They'll never come out
A boutique of beautiful flowers
Sunbathe in a glass of water
On my dining room table
Light streams through the window
Like a lost river looking for a home
I turn away
To find a smile
But when I turn back
The flowers have wilted
The petals have fallen
The water's turned black
The walls around me shake
Rumble
Come tumbling down
I hide
Curled in a tiny little ball
In the farthest corner of my mind
Watching thoughts fly by
Dark and sharp
And cloudy, misty shapes
When I come out
I find the vase shattered on the ground
Unmendably broken
I gather the peices anyway
And watch the blood drip out
